Exempt narcotics are regulated for how many dosage units can be sold without a prescription in a 48 hour period?

  1. A. 24

  2. B. 48

  3. C. 72

  4. D. 168

The correct answer is: B. 48

Exempt narcotics, often referred to as controlled substances that can be sold without a prescription, are regulated by federal and state laws to prevent misuse while allowing certain levels of consumer access. According to these regulations, individuals are permitted to purchase a maximum of 48 dosage units within a 48-hour period without needing a prescription. This limit is established to safeguard against potential abuse and to ensure that the distribution of these substances is monitored. The rationale behind this specific number ensures that pharmacies can provide patients with necessary access while maintaining a framework that can deter excessive purchasing that might suggest misuse of the medication.
